I had the nearly the same problem with the same monitor.  It would start
in 1280X960 mode.  I could switch it to 1360x768 running compiz on the
Nvidia 173 driver but I never did get it to start that way.  
I came to the same solution...I switched monitors with another computer
and it runs great at 1280x1024.
It isn't a problem with a wide screen monitor.  I am running a 24" wide
screen on another computer with the same video card.  I just wish I
could get it to run Netflix without using Virtual Box!  It works but is
slow....

After upgrading to Lucid Lynx the Nvidia 173 driver gives double images 
vertically when ran on a widescreen monitor in 1360x768 mode.  After several 
reboots and no luck the quick fix for me was to swap to a standard monitor that 
would support a more common resolution.
